So I love the chicken here. But I just ordered chicken strips with French fries and my change was 3.17. The cashier only gave me 3.00 which I then placed in the tip container. While she was still looking down she took the money out turned and put it into her pocket. Now I would assume the tips should be shared with the other workers so I didn’t care for that in addition to .17 here and there is still stealing. Really disappointing.

I have been going to this restaurant for about a year and a half now, and it has personally become one of my Top 3 favorite restaurants of all time. This is the place that officially made me a fried chicken fan — and no fried chicken has ever come close to Gus’s World Famous Fried Chicken!

Picked up a to go order today for a friend that is sick. My fault for not checking the boxes. Got all the way home (30 minute drive) to find out the tenders I ordered for me was 2 chicken breast. How hard is it to look at the ticket and make sure the boxes are right. The only special thing I ask was that my order be placed in a separate bag. It's one thing if I am inconvenienced but I hate that I took them the wrong food because you were nit oaying attention.
